Syntax highlighting in fenced code blocks with language identifiers are rendered by Prism. MacDown provides various tools that add additional processing to the rendered HTML, including:

You can find all the available configurations in MacDown’s Preferences pane. It also supports lots of non-standard syntactic features, including the very widely-used fenced code blocks with language identifiers. This makes MacDown’s live preview both efficient and very configurable. Hoedown is used internally to render Markdown into HTML. Syntax highlighting in fenced code blocks.Highly customisable Markdown rendering.MacDown is heavily influenced by Mou, and I try to mimic much of its behaviour as much as possible both in UI and the logic underneath, only making changes when I feel that improvement is necessary. So I started from scratch, spent some weekends hacking together my own solution. I don’t have nearly enough money to match Chen Luo’s purposed offer, but I do have my own pocket of tricks and some free time. No suitable offers surfaced (I honestly do not think there will be, either), and I decided that instead of waiting for others to do something about this, I should act myself. It came as a great shock when Chen Luo announced that he felt he could not actively continue the development, and wished to sell the ownership of Mou. I write Markdown all the time, and since I use macOS on a daily basis, Mou is my go-to editor whenever I wish to generate something with markup. It is heavily influenced by Chen Luo’s Mou. MacDown is an open source Markdown editor for OS X.
